Default Illegal axle weights??

Hi,
Presently a Blue Bird owner and would love a Newell. The newer Newells are running a 28,000 lb drive axle. Although it is not usually enforced, the maximum single axle load allowed in most States is 20,000lbs with several being up to 22,000lbs. The Ohio turnpike has scales entering and has stopped at least one Blue Bird for over 20,000 steer axle.They re-arranged cargo. Will this trend get worse and will this high weight axle be a problem? The new coach has about 23,000 lbs on the drive axle -- dry weight)
